Treasurer

The County Treasurer acts as the County's banker, receiving and disbursing all funds as provided by state law and county ordinances; providing for daily cash requirements of Bayfield County, and investing public funds not used for daily operations. The Treasurer's Office collects delinquent property or real estate taxes in Bayfield County's 28 municipalities as required by State Statutes. The County Treasurer also maintains property tax data that is accessible to the public at the Courthouse office.

Property Tax Payments

Property tax bills are mailed by the town, city, or village treasurer in mid to late December. Either payment in full or first installment must be made to the proper town, city, or village treasurer by January 31. The second installment is due to the Bayfield County Treasurer by July 31. If any payment due date is not met, the unpaid property tax balance becomes delinquent and accrues interest at a rate of 1% per month retroactive to February 1.
